As a college student, this would cover my rent fully and leave enough for a grocery-run. It would lift a good amount the stress off of my shoulders, that’s for sure.

Nice. Rent was $300/mo in my time, 15 yrs ago.

I still have $8k in student loan debt held by Edu secretary Betsy DeVos’ Navient (aka Mom Corp).

Yeah finding under $500/mo wasn’t easy in the area around my university, especially with the housing market as it is now. I’m heading into my senior year and just might eek by without taking out loans (thanks to scholarships for average-grade receiving students).

It might cover rent. Very low-income people typically have Section 8 housing, which is subsidized.

Ok, but I was referring to the number of people in the test, not the dollar amount.
